Code parsers

Name: Anonymous 2009-09-08 20:45

What does /prog/ use to parse their code? I use Notepad++, but I know thats asking for flaming, because emacs is the only useful thing to use.

lex/yacc for programming languages with complex sytanx.
READ/PRINT for more sane syntaxes.

Notepad++ hardly parses code...

yeah, this thread is weird. does OP mean to ask what editor we use? something like s/parse/edit?

Name: Anonymous 2009-09-09 1:33

I'm currently using Emacs.

Until you use emacs and you realize what you've been missing all this time.

Cancel the command you're in, transpose two letters, go forward one word and change formatting?

When I use an editor, I don't want eight EXTRA KILOBYTES of worthless
help screens and cursor positioning code!  I just want an EDitor!!
Not a "viitor".  Not a "emacsitor".  Those aren't even WORDS!!!!
ED! ED! ED IS THE STANDARD!!!

inb4 link to wiktionary showing that viitor is a word

"viitor" is a word. and vi is in POSIX now, so it's just as standard as ed.

I think I'll start a campaign to get emacs in the next POSIX revision, who's with me?

You'd have an easier time to get in the Mozilla suite and all its dependencies.

If in your opinion emacs is the only useful one, why the fuck are you asking about others.

I personally hate emacs, it requires far too much learning to understand how to do anything in it. I want an editor/parser to parse/edit code, not to fucking dance with it.

OP here btw.

I personally really like kdevelop. Have a look at it.

s/emacs/vi/
Seriously, not an editor war, but vi has a much higher barrier to entry than emacs. If only because modal editing can be jarring if you aren't used to it.

OK
I had no problems with that, but OK. It is not my job to make anyone like EMACS.

emacs is modal too. the difference is that in vi you don't need to hold down 5 keys at once to keep it in command mode.

hold down 5 keys at once
You never have to hold down more then three keys at once, and most three-keyers have a two-key alias.

You sir, have clearly never used emacs. Seriously, I can't remember the last time I had to hold down 5 keys at once, hell 4 is a rarety. your .emacs may differ

I wonder how are we going to convince people that this and http://dis.4chan.org/read/prog/1252374566/126 are not the same person.
